Just got a new "yarn card" from my favorite yarn shop in Canada. The colors have changed, the texture has changed, only the names remain the same. Moral: If you see a yarn that you like, buy it all. It will not be there later. Aaron

I have not written much these days! But I read you, and "see" you! The work on the house takes much time, even we are not doing "anything" ourselves. The workers do a very good job, but there is much to do. The roof is ready, and the chimney "metal cover" also. 5 new windows are "in" and 2 new ones...

I'm finally getting around to making crochet snowflakes, after I bought the book and thread two years ago. Does fabric stiffener dry white or clear? I'm wondering if I use colored thread or white-and-metallic thread, if the stiffener will show. Also, do snowflakes always look horrible before...

Aww, those are two very lovely purple squares! I'm a little late in getting my two squares to you, I should have them done by Halloween... Thank you so much! Laurel

Microsoft is responsible because their products are so full of security holes that any bored teenybopper with c0d|ng sk|11z can write a bug that will infect Outlook or...

I am a new lurker, and am _very_ interested im Kumihimo. I have been doing some of the simpler patterns for a couple of years now. (Very soothing.) I even teach the beginning levels. I have been using the coffee can lid looms, and now have a nice one made for me by the husband of one of my...

I have not told you yet of my newest hotpad. I knitted it just a while ago. Its destination will be the place I work in. Purple and green and garter stitch. I handled those 2 strands of yarn as one yarn. So...can you imagine how the hotpad looks like? I like doing them. Easy to knit and mindless....
